Is it a staggered set? Do you have pictures?

kkhnouri,

I see two problems:

1. I am in NY so shipping is a problem for me,

2. If you're planning to use them on CLK then its a bad idea as wheels and especially wheel hardware are not mean for that car - they will fit all S, CL, new E and new SL properly, and ML ( but not sure about load for ML).

Is it a fitment problem, or a size problem with the hardware you speak of? I need 35mm offset and the widest is about 8.5

Well, the wheels are 1/6 Evo Dimond edition and are made only in 18x8.5 ET40, but can be used with no problems at all with 5mm H&R spacers (I also have 2 brand new pairs).

However, the wheels' holes are drilled for 14mm bolts, not 12mm that CLK uses. But at the same time "nguyensteve" has W211 E wheels on W210 E - see pictures under "brake job" thread - so I think it (14 vs 12 hole) is not a problem.

BTW, I would sell the wheels for not less than $1300 including 2 5mm pairs of HR spacers, but it will have to be someone local, as I will not ship.
